While I was initially deterred by the day use fee ($36), I powered through, combined two workouts…read moreinto one (I am not paying that day use fee twice!) and was very impressed with both the amount and variety of equipment squeezed into the Amagansett location. Everything was in pretty good shape, clean, not too crowded and overall an easy place to get a bodybuilding type workout in. They had some equipment that my regular gym doesn't have so I wish I could have stayed longer but I had to get back to the party! Available: treadmills, squat rack, smith machine, GHD, various benches, clips, metal steps for step ups/box squats, various cable machines, lots of dumbbells and weights, some belts and belts with chains, a bathroom and parking in the back.

Some of the equipment is on the old side but the club has everything you need and more. They are very very Covid health conscious and have all you need to keep equipment clean and to keep you safe. Great staff too!

Does this look like a torture chamber to you? Well, it is, but in a good way. Welcome to the latest…read moreworkout craze. After a lovely holiday week skiing at 12,000 feet in Colorado, I thought a Cross Fit class would be no biggie. Ha! But here's the thing: even though I was the oldest, fattest and slowest of the group (four men, four women), everyone was so encouraging that I managed the pull-ups (aided by a giant rubber band), the sit-ups (some new and interesting versions), and the interminable running (ok, jogging) loops around the building. This place has a cult following, there are even special Cross Fit shoes and a tee shirt! Everybody in the class is a happy convert and I know why. This workout will shed the pounds and have you ripped in no time. Lucky for me, you can go at your own pace. I figure I can bear anything for an hour, and I did. Panting, exhausted, but inexplicably exhilarated, I came home and looked up the schedule for the week. Buy me the tee shirt, I'm going back.

I showed up at MidCoast CrossFit seven months pregnant, and out of a box, given a cross-country…read moremove. With all my special needs for scaling WODs and modifying movements, the coaches and members accepted me with open arms. With the Elayne and Wendell's (co-owners) help, it's been possible for me to CrossFit at least three times a week right into my eight month of pregnancy; I'm at 38 weeks today, and planning to hit a class later this afternoon. It's become a habit to show up five min early to talk with the coach about scaling the WOD or substituting movements. I love that their community has been so positive, since being able to CrossFit has allowed me retain some semblance of normalcy amidst my first pregnancy, and the upheaval of a very big move! While I haven't encountered any naysayers at MidCoast, there are some who may comment "is it really safe?" If you're pregnant and wish to continue CrossFit, use common sense: talk with your doctor first (I did, and got a resounding, "yes, go for it!"), scale back your weight by 20-30% (pregnancy is no time to try for a PR), don't get your heart rate too high (breathe, breathe, breathe), and listen to your body - if a movement hurts or doesn't feel right, then substitute! Also, some movements are just "no-no's," so talk with your coaches and do the research on which movements to skip. Any day may be my last class before my big day, and I will miss all the support and sound coaching that I've received at MidCoast! I'm looking forward to returning a month or two down the line with baby in tow.

Carpe Diem was another stop on my fitness journey this week. I was looking for a class that fit…read morewith my schedule, sounded like something I could do that wouldn't kill me, and Carpe Diem's core class fit the bill. The studio itself is large and spacious. The workout equipment is in great shape and spotlessly clean thanks to the hardworking attendant whose job it is to set up and clean up. The instructor introduced himself and welcomed me to class, and explained the set up of the class and how the intervals would be done. He asked me if I had any injuries, I told him none except for the fact that I'm really out of shape. He laughed and promised me any modifications I need, and told me to go at my own pace. This was a really challenging class, but the instructor and group camaraderie made it fun and bearable. I'd recommend Carpe Diem to anyone looking for a fun and effective workout.

I'm surprised this old listing hasn't been claimed and updated. I've gone to this studio since they opened about 13 years ago. It's improved a lot, including opening the second location in Guilford. And name change after Petra bought it from OG. I appreciate that only the power classes are hot and that you can do regular flow in a reg temperature room. They tend towards more yin positions (ie slower but harder to hold asanas. Less likely to get injured in this method. They have morning and evening classes. I will speak with the owner about claiming this business!

I've tried it several times over the years, but have found it a bit too earnest and intentional for my easily-distractible mind and a little too challenging for my large-motor, hopelessly inflexible body. All that changed, however, after one session at Pradipika-which ironically means to illuminate or shed light on-Yoga. Diaphanously dressed Marcy led our Power Vinyasa class in the small, yummy smelling studio. Her pace was persistent, but allowed for ample time to make adjustments or suggestions for modifications in either direction of difficulty. At various times during the class she'd oh-so subtly and gently reposition me. And at the risk of sounding creepy let's just say, her magic touch almost made me want to strike the wrong pose. I also loved the overall vibe of her class; particularly the music which featured my personal favorite Aimee Mann. The owner, Jennifer Dahlgren offers a full complement of classes-including a series designed just for kids-for people at all levels of their practice. Classes: Everything from the basics to hot yoga Schedule: 3 - 5 classes a day Atmosphere: Light, clean and of course Zen. Price: Variety of passes and packages which range from $16 for a drop in to as low as $10 if you buy a group of 30. Extras: 15 minute meditation class on Sundays at 4:45 is free; donate a percentage of profits to Shoreline Soup Kitchens.

I felt the difference of that kind of short-burst of all-out exercise made...I am so motivated to get to the next level and to see what it does. Alex passionately believes in this system and now I am convinced. I am a 56-year-old woman,in fairly good shape(level 9.1) but want to be at Level 10 soon to lose that bit of extra fat I don't want. Alex showed me exactly what i need to do to get there,which makes it more attainable . Like having a road map before going on a trip. This is the way. I wont' be able to do it in the East Hampton studio, but will take it to the hilly streets of San Francisco using the online support. Alex has thought of everything. I feel so fortunate to have found this studio when I was there on vacation. This is going to change the way I work out and I am already feeling more energy and motivation since i have the clarity of the levels and what to do to reach my goals. All this in one session !! I can't say enough great things about this work-out or the trainer.
